I started taking this medication because I was not ovulating on my own. My doctor first tried 50mg and with opk testing it was determined that this was not enough to stimulate ovulation. I was given the option of trying again or upping the dosage to 100mg. I chose to up the dosage because I knew I could only be on it for 6 cycles and didn't want to waste any opportunities.

This time around I got a positive opk followed by ovulation pains (which I have never had in my life!) and this cycle I conceived!

I am 37 years old and I tried two rounds of Clomid - one on June of 2016 and one in September of 2016. I did ovulate but did not get pregnant. The second round was a more aggressive dose which resulted in headaches, irritability, and also constantly feeling extremely horny.

I am 37 years old and I tried two rounds of Clomid - one on June of 2016 and one in September of 2016. I did ovulate but did not get pregnant. The second round was a more aggressive dose which resulted in headaches, irritability, and also constantly feeling extremely horny. The problem that I am facing is that after I got my period on September 25th, my hormone levels dropped lower than they have ever been. I am tired all the time, nausious, my skin is dry, my eyelids are puffy and I have absolutely no sex drive. I had my hormone levels checked yesterday by my doctor and he said that my estrogen and progesterone are both very low, which I already suspected due to how tired and nauseous I feel all the time. I really hope (and suspect) that this is an "after-effect" of taking such an aggressive dose of clomid. I still have not had another period since September 25th, nor have I ovulated on my own. One of the nurses at my doctor's practice said that it is possible that this is an after-effect of the clomid. Hoping that my body will 'reset' on it's own in time. My doctor has prescribed Provera to bring my period and I am tempted to take it becuase of how sick I feel from the low hormone levels, but I'm going to hold off and see if my body will "bounce back" on its own.

I took chlomid for 1 month after a few years of trying unsuccessfully to get pregnant. It led to a pregnancy (which I miscarried) but I never wanted to take it again because of the RAGE it brought on. I was a total crazy person. I might try Femara since the MD says some women have fewer mental side effects on that but those side effects don't look great either. We decided to pursue adoption a ... Show Full Comment

My boyfriend and I tried to get pregnant for two years with no luck. Finally my doctor prescribed me Clomid and after three months of being on clomid I did not get pregnant so I was getting frustrated and decided to take a break off Clomid. The following month off clomid I got pregnant! The medication must of still been in my system that month and I am very glad I gave clomid a try.
